SAFE CONTROLLERS DESIGN FOR HIBRID PLANTS - The Emergency Stop

Eurico Seabra, José Machado

2009

Abstract

This paper presents and discusses a case study that applies a global approach for considering all the automation systems emergency stop requirements. The definition of all the functioning modes and all the stop tasks of the automation system is also presented according the standards EN 418 and EN 60204-1. All the aspects related with the emergency stop are focused in a particular way. The proposed approach defines and guarantees the safety aspects of an automation system controller related with the emergency stop. For the controller structure it is used the GEMMA formalism; for the controller entire specification it is used the SFC and for the controller behavior simulation it is used the Automation studio software.
